Re: NBA Thread
Who would trade anything of value for potentially 3 months of Kyrie (assuming he actually plays a full 3 months)?

Nobody should, but I'd certainly trade things without value like Lowry and Robinson.Monkey_Driven wrote:Who would trade anything of value for potentially 3 months of Kyrie (assuming he actually plays a full 3 months)?

Re: NBA Thread
They shouldn't. Same with a Russ deal. Tough to imagine a trade that anybody would be willing to do that they'd go along with.Monkey_Driven wrote:Why would Brooklyn do that?

Re: NBA Thread
I think I'd take the two first rounders in a potential Russ deal. No long term money/bad contracts. Still, probably want a decent role player in the deal too.

Re: NBA Thread
The Lakers would be insane to do that.

Re: NBA Thread
Wait, you're saying Brooklyn would want more than just the two firsts??

The Nets are 31-20 and only 5 1/2 games back of Boston for the top seed. And the guy demands a trade? Because of his contract? Lol.

Re: NBA Thread
They offered him a multi-year extension with the last year not fully guaranteed and "stipulations." Who wouldn't demand a trade in the face of such insolence.Coach wrote:The Nets are 31-20 and only 5 1/2 games back of Boston for the top seed. And the guy demands a trade? Because of his contract?

Re: NBA Thread
The stipulation was probably "must play more than 50 games in a season if you are not injured".

I'd start there at least. Hold Pelinka (aka Lebron) to the fire a bit.4/5 wrote:Wait, you're saying Brooklyn would want more than just the two firsts??

Re: NBA Thread
I think it's debatable whether the Lakers should be willing to give one of the firsts let alone both and additional compensation.

Re: NBA Thread
I wouldn't do it if I was the Lakers, but would consider it if they have assurances Kyrie would sign with them this summer. A hypothetical 2 year window with AD, Lebron, Kyrie is better than anything they will get with cap space this summer.4/5 wrote:I think it's debatable whether the Lakers should be willing to give one of the firsts let alone both and additional compensation.
